    please help- young bird with injured leg

    The leg hangs limp, doesn't grip like the other one and I have to physically manoeuvre it underneath his body when he is put down, otherwise it's just hanging out the back. Can't weight bear at all, the other leg is strong, but not strong enough for him to stand. He is fully feathered, looking...

    Are my babies hurting each other?

    My quails are now 4 weeks old, they came from quite a weak batch and ive been left with 3. Im not sure if they are hurting eachother, or simply growing their feathers; their feathers on their wings and underneath are very bare, much like the stalk parts of the feathers with no actual fluff on...

    Quail with no eyes

    I think you did a wonderful job, I had one pass away after 2 days last week - he was helped out of the egg by someone I don't know, and therefore wasn't strong enough to survive. Buthe ate and drank and had such character, I wouldn't have changed it for the world. Good job for not giving up

    quail problem- very concerned

    Had to separate them as not improving - been bathing her eyes with salt water for 4 days, still no improvement. She's now walking around with both eyes closed, banging into things. I have no idea what else I can do :-(

    quail problem- very concerned

    Thank you. Unfortunately she's not even going for the treats im putting in, and the eye is looking worse. She keeps scratching it so it must be irritating her. I will have to try and catch her to bathe it

    quail problem- very concerned

    A little more worried after this morning- she's not eaten at all, usually they flock to their food but she's wandering round. She's also sneezing, which I've never seen the others do.

    Ah thankyou, that is reassuring. She not laid in a few days- maybe due to the guinea pig shock?

    quail problem- very concerned

    After moving my girl into the lower section of the shed she hasn't been the same. She began banging her head on the roof which had me very concerned- I narrowed it down to the fact she was on the same level as the guinea pigs which had spooked her. Since covering the guinea cage she has stopped...
